Chapter 225: Brotherly Love (I)
"That's right, exactly the black lotus you need. But now it seems, now that you've found it. These seven black lotus plants in my hand shouldn't be of much help to you......" Thales said as he shook his head and sighed as he stared at a handful of mint-shaped plants that were dark in color.
"Thales, don't say that!" Tucker's expression was full of surprise, and he greeted him with open arms, and said as he walked: "I knew that you had a kind heart, and these black lotus plants were delivered in time to solve my urgent need!" β
"Really? But... Tucker, haven't you already found ten black lotus plants? Thales pretended to be puzzled, but he felt funny in his heart, of course he guessed the truth, and simply wanted to stimulate it.
Tucker choked for a moment, then touched the back of his head and laughed dryly, "It seems... Yes, but I forgot where the black lotus was hidden. The terrain around here is too complicated. β
"That's a good reason to be lame......" Thales rolled his eyes, sneering.
Immediately after, he smiled slyly: "Then you admit that your memory is not very good?" β
When Tucker heard this, his face turned dark, and his eyes were a little unkind.
"Hah, just kidding!" Thales smiled and waved his hand, and said in a very casual tone, "Don't say so much." Tucker, I came to you, in fact, to cooperate.
"Cooperation?" Tucker was stunned when he heard this, his eyes fell on the black lotus in Thales' hand, and he said thoughtfully: "Do you want to... Please help you deal with the bloodhoofed boar and the flaming rhinoceros? β
"That's right!" Thales smiled wittily: "In return, I will give you the black lotus." β
After speaking, Thales added quickly: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, the task given to us by our father is very simple, and it is easy to complete it with a swap. I have a dark elemental affinity, so it's easier to find black lotus. And you're a second-level knight, so you're no match for the Bloodhoof Boar and the Flame Rhinoceros. β
When Tucker heard this, he shook his head and said with a straight look:
"Thales, we can't be opportunistic!
There must be a reason for the task that my father has given us, and we must do what my father says! β
"Why? Tucker, you're such a brainstorm! Thales opened his mouth in disbelief, "We're far from the picnic camp, and my father won't know about it, so we secretly swapped missions. And he didn't come out to supervise, so he must have acquiesced in this behavior. β
"No, my father said that obedience is the duty of a soldier. I will strictly follow the order, it is impossible to use your black lotus! "Tucker is very stubborn and doesn't intend to take advantage of the loopholes.
"Tucker, we're not soldiers, we've been away from the Canyon Line for two years!" Thales sighed helplessly.
Tucker looked calm and said lightly: "My father also said that retirement does not fade, even if I am not on the battlefield, I will not disobey orders." β
Thales glared slightly, and pointed at Tucker, who felt his head grow for one of Tucker's tendons!
Fortunately, he was familiar with Tucker's personality, and before he came, he had prepared for the unexpected and made more preparations for this......
"Tucker, you can help your poor brother......"
Thales changed his style and tone, his face drooped, and he lifted his shirt pitifully, revealing the side of his waist.
I saw a slender scratch, and a blood line about ten centimeters long was clearly displayed.
Hearing this, Tucker's gaze moved downward, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked:
"Thales, what's the matter with this wound?"
He leaned back to his head, looked closely, squinted and said, "Looks like he just ...... been injured."
"It's all to blame on the damn bloodhoofed boar, that pair of fangs are too sharp, I tried to deal with it before I came, but I couldn't dodge it in the fight, and I was cut by a sharp horn." Thales was a little aggrieved: "If it weren't for my quick reaction, I'm afraid I would have been directly poked through by the fangs......"
"Scratched by a Bloodhoof Boar? You're too careless! Tucker's brow furrowed.
"That's why I'm here to ask you for help......" Thales sighed deeply, "If Tucker doesn't help me, then I'll have to face it alone, that terrible bloodhoof boar......"
With that, he turned around, his hunched back a little lonely.
And Tucker behind him couldn't bear it, his eyebrows were twisted together, looking at the direction in which Thales was leaving, he sighed helplessly, and said in a deep voice: "Stop, Thales!" β
Thales paused, but said without looking back, "Is there anything else?" β
"You wait here, I'll help you deal with the bloodhoofed boar and the flaming rhinoceros." Tucker looked solemn, and then strode out.
Hearing this, Thales secretly rejoiced that the plan worked!
Tucker's speed was very fast, and he quickly overtook Thales, who said in the back, "Tucker, wait for me, I'll give you these black lotus!" β
Tucker's firm voice reached behind him, "No need, I'll help you get rid of the Bloodhoof Boar and the Flame Rhino, but I'll find the Black Lotus Grass myself." β
"Why? There's no need for this at all, it's a waste of time and energy......" Thales was in a hurry to catch up behind, his pace was fast, but he couldn't compare with Tucker, and before he could finish speaking, Tucker was gone.
Thales stared ahead in a daze, thinking back to what Tucker had just said, and there was a touch of emotion in his eyes.
He looked down at the dirt and sighed.
Tucker, who quickly moved away, began to search the mountains for the traces of the bloodhoofed boar, and he wanted to avenge Thales!
In ten minutes, he was far away from the area he was in.
Along the way, he gradually found the footprints of a suspected bloodhoofed boar, and it was a lone bloodhoofed boar.
He sniffed lightly in the air, and the smell of the bloodhoofed boar in winter was even stronger, and there was a peculiar stench all over his body, which Tucker was impressed.
I followed the footprints for a while.
Suddenly, he saw a pit in the ground, the outline was a bit like a large hazelnut.
Tucker's expression moved slightly, and his eyes looked straight at the small pit at his feet, he knew that the bloodhoofed boars had a hobby - arch truffles, but they were not like ordinary wild boars, and they were especially fond of truffles.
So when you take the truffles, you will leave behind crumbs and even powder, etc., which are all good clues for tracking!
He sniffed lightly, and then a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, he smelled the unique smell of truffles floating in the air, combined with the bloody hoof of wild boar footprints just now, and the certainty of finding its traces was quite large.
Immediately, Tucker followed the map and kept shuttling through the forest.
Eventually, in a stinking bush, I saw a bloodhoofed boar resting on the ground.
He was attracted by the loud snoring, and when he walked in, he saw a hill-like body full of momentum, and the blood-colored skin on his body was covered in a layer of sludge.
Tucker stared at the Bloodhoof Boar, a look of pity flashed in his eyes, this was a second-order Bloodhoof Boar, it couldn't be the one that hurt Thales. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for Thales to escape for his life under the hands of the second-order bloodhoof boar.
Just as Tucker was pondering whether to fight or leave, the bloodhoof boar's snoring continued, but his eyes suddenly burst openβit was pretending to sleep, and after discovering that the enemy had offended the territory, it immediately opened its bloody mouth and charged at Tucker.
Knock knock
The earth is trampled, and the bloodhoof boar's sheer size resembles a small moving fortress, and the fangs on its head are its sharpest weapons!
Seeing this, a hint of coldness flashed in Tucker's eyes, "Since it was sent to the door, don't blame me for being rude, before taking revenge on Thales, I will warm you up first!" β
"Cross Slash!" The long sword in Tucker's hand was quickly swung, and a cross-shaped flame sword qi instantly condensed, and a burst of scorching flames emanated from the air, and it slammed into the bloodhoof boar.
rumble
There was a loud explosion in the air.
Tucker was hit by this huge force, and his body couldn't help but retreat - the physical fitness of the demonic beasts was quite amazing, especially the bloodhoof boar, and the power of the charge was even more fierce than that of the minotaur.
Tucker, who shook this blow, had some numbness in his arm, and this time he didn't have a shield, so his defense ability decreased to a certain extent.
And the top of the head of the bloodhoof boar was slashed with a sword, leaving a bloody mark, and he felt uncomfortable, and let out an angry roar.
Then, it charged angrily, and Tucker was ready to challenge, dodging and slashing from the side when the opponent couldn't stop the inertia.
In his opinion, the Bloodhoof Boar was very cumbersome, and although it was powerful in its charge, it was far from flexible, and he could find a breakthrough in it.
However, when the Bloodhoof Boar does charge in front of him, Tucker realizes that he has misjudged the speed of the Bloodhoof Boar, making it impossible to dodge in time.
Dodging to the left does not completely avoid the Bloodhoof Boar's charge.
The price to pay for this is the huge fangs, which are about to pierce his waist and abdomen.
In a hurry, Tucker was in a hurry, and the long sword was slapped sideways by him. This also caused the fangs, which should have pierced into the lower abdomen, to be bombarded with great force, and they were slightly away from the rib cage.
Phew
Flesh is torn!
A drop of blood swayed in the air, Tucker was only participating in camping today, wearing loose clothes, without any defensive blessings, and in an instant, a three-centimeter-deep wound was cut, and the fangs almost brushed the ribs, almost hooking off a few ribs!
Tucker's face was very solemn, and he secretly said in his heart that it was so dangerous, he was so trusting just now that he almost sent himself into danger.
The battle just now was just a short moment,
The blood-hoofed boar that saw the blood howled in revelry, and a pair of eyes flashed with madness.
Turn around and charge at Tucker again!
One trick is fresh, eaten all over the sky, and the charge of the bloodhoof boar itself is not easy to deal with, not to mention that it also has a rough skin and thick defense, which is really tricky in battle.
Knock knock
Seeing that the bloodhoofed boar was about to rush at him, Tucker narrowed his eyes slightly, this time he was not ready to take the risk, but his heart was calm, and when he charged two meters in front of him.
Tucker's eyes twinkleβit's now, the phantom backtracks!
Boom
He took ghostly steps, and with the blessing of his body fighting skills, he quickly flashed behind the bloodhoof boar like a ghost!
Tucker roared, his right arm unleashing a powerful force and stabbing his sword into some indescribable hole......
A little cold came first, and then the sword came out like a dragon!
Poof!
Chrysanthemum remnants, wounds all over the ground!
With a roaring and mournful roar, the fishy yellow and bright red liquid mixed and sprayed outward, but it couldn't get close to Tucker, and it was evaporated by the flame fighting qi.
Tucker held his breath and spun his wrist so that the longsword churned in it.
For the Bloodhoof Boar, this operation was tantamount to a critical act, letting out a long cry of sorrow, and the limbs could not even help but go limp, and they were unable to lie on the ground.
After a few seconds, the convulsions gradually stopped.
Tucker pulled out his sword and breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the dirty sword body, and deliberately took it far away, revealing a look of disgust to himself.
He wasn't a magician, he didn't even have the ability to condense water, so he could only rub some wide evergreen leaves, simply clean the blade, and then continue to search for the first-order bloodhoof boar and the flaming rhinoceros.
These two demonic beasts are both first-order strengths, so they are very easy to solve, and it doesn't take much effort at all.
Half an hour later, Tucker gritted his teeth and arrived at the place where he had met Thales, dragging a bloodhoofed boar and a flaming rhinoceros in each hand.
At this time, Thales was sitting empty-handed on a pile of dry and soft grass, and when he heard the voice, he hurriedly got up to meet him.
"Tucker, you're back! Hey? Are you hurt? Taylors cheered with joy, but his eyes fell on Tucker's waist, and his face changed suddenly!
Poof
Poof
Tucker let go of his hand, and the two monsters fell to the ground with a dull thud.
He said calmly: "I met a bloodhoofed boar on the road, I was careless and suffered a small injury. β
"Quick, let me see!" Thales said eagerly, feeling a little guilty that it was his lies that caused Tucker to suffer this injury.
Tucker shook his head away from Thales' hand and said, "No need, it's just a minor injury, it will heal itself in a few days."
You take these two magical beasts and go back quickly, there is not much time, and I have to hurry up to find the black lotus grass. β
"You ......" Thales subconsciously wanted to say dead-headed, but he couldn't say anything halfway through the words, he pointed at Tucker, and reluctantly lowered his arm: "Well, good luck favors you, fool." β
In an instant, the wind element shrouded the corpses of the two demonic beasts, allowing Thales to pull it on his own strength, and gradually left the place.
When he arrived at the campsite, it was about an hour before noon.
Seeing the figure of his youngest son from afar, Reiter smiled and waved his hand: "Thales, it seems that you finished earlier than Tucker, and this time you won." β
Nina, on Raylai's head, blinked at Thales and ducked away with some fear.
In the past, Thales would have cheered and even taunted Tucker a few more times.
By the way, snatched Nina over again and forcibly stroked it.
However, at this time, Thales didn't look at the snow elves, waved his hand with some lack of interest, and sat on the ground, "I'm a little hungry, eat some cheese first." β
Leiter touched his chin and raised his eyebrows: "That's right, for you, it really takes a lot of effort to deal with these two magical beasts, and it's normal to feel hungry." β
Thales wasn't tired, just a little tired in his heart.
He didn't do it himself, Tucker did it for him.
After hearing this, the outstretched hand paused suddenly, and finally picked up the cheese and nibbled on it without saying a word.
